Answer:
55
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the middle integer. Then the smallest is x-2 and the largest is x+2. Your requirement is that ...
(x-2)/(x+2) > 2/3
3x -6 > 2x +4 . . . . cross multiply
x > 10 . . . . . . . . . . .add 6-2x
The smallest integer satisfying this requirement is x=11. The sum of the 5 integers is 5x = 55.
The smallest sum is 55.
It's 3x+2 because 3 ÷2 is 6 so it's 3x+2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
All other things being equal, spinner A is fine. It is a fair spinner.
Spinner B is not fair. Players 1 and 3 have only 1 number each. Player 2 on the other hand, has 2 numbers that work for him. If player 2 puts in two dollars and players 1 and 3 one dollar each, that should even up the odds. Now you want it just to be fair. So I think player 2 has to put up 2 dollars and players 1 and 3 each put up one. The pot is 4 dollars each time it is played.
Spinner 3 is not fair either. Player one has 2 chances. Player 2 has 3 chances and player 3 has but one chance. There are 6 chances in all. Player 1 should put up 2 dollars to play player 1 should put up 3 dollars and player 1 should put up 1 dollar.
